We, the concerned students, parents, and community members of Etobicoke Collegiate Institute (Etobicoke C.I.), urgently call for a change in leadership and demand the appointment of a new principal who will address the pressing issues that have plagued our school for far too long.

Etobicoke C.I. has become a stifling environment, both figuratively and literally, due to the lack of proper ventilation and air conditioning. With scorching temperatures outside, the oppressive heat inside the school has made it unbearable for students to focus on their studies and thrive academically. It is essential for our learning environment to be conducive to education, and the absence of air conditioning significantly hampers our ability to learn and succeed.

Moreover, the dire state of the washroom facilities has become a major source of frustration for the entire student body. The limited availability of functioning washrooms and the absurd arrangement of forcing ground floor students to navigate three sets of stairs just to access basic sanitary facilities is not only inconvenient but also discriminatory. It is essential that every student has equal access to hygienic facilities without undue physical strain.

In addition to these pressing concerns, it is evident that the current principal has failed to effectively manage and address the various challenges faced by our school community. Students and parents alike have grown increasingly dissatisfied with the way the school is being operated and the lack of responsiveness to our grievances. We demand a principal who will actively listen to the concerns of students, parents, and staff and take tangible steps to implement the necessary changes that will improve the overall quality of education and well-being at Etobicoke C.I.

We, the undersigned, firmly believe that the appointment of a new principal who is dedicated, proactive, and receptive to the needs of the students and staff is crucial to resolving the pressing issues we face at Etobicoke C.I. It is imperative that our voices are heard and that the concerns regarding the lack of air conditioning, insufficient washroom facilities, and the overall management of the school are addressed promptly.

Join us in signing this petition to bring about the change we desperately need. Together, we can ensure a better learning environment for all students at Etobicoke Collegiate Institute.
